Victoria & Cooper
Wedding Party
Andrea Toczko
Maid of Honor
Andrea and I were college quadmates but our friendship didn’t blossom until we hit full-fledged adult life. She & I have been through so many hills and valleys together, we decided to buckle up for the ride long ago. There aren’t many people who will be direct with you but kind at the same time. This is Andrea, a Venezuelan beauty & true friend who wants the best for her ladies. Well, she is the best lady for the role of MOH. That’s right, I have TWO maids of honor! Andrea pursued Jesus with such integrity & grace during one of the hardest seasons of her life. You couldn’t watch that and not be inspired. She is such a giver and hosts the best sleepovers, which always include ice cream (our love language). I can’t wait to plan this incredible day with her eye for detail & incredible style!
Kelsey Bengtson
Maid of Honor
Hey yo! Meet one of my maids of honor, Kelsey Bengtson (aka KB)! What can I not say about this true friend? Not only is she my roommate and coworker, she is my sounding board & so often my source of joy in the mundane. There is NEVER a dull moment living with this one & we always find ourselves on some kind of adventure! A fun time, yes, but KB has the biggest heart for God & people. I think that’s why we get along so well. She will be the first to tell of God’s love & the first to give you a hug. Speaking of which, her hugs are amazing. Ask her for one! They are free! From the first time I told her about Cooper until now, she has been a part of it all. She sums it up like this, “A God-fearing man fell out of the sky & pursued V in a Biblical way.” You are a rockstar & I appreciate you!
Rebecca Isaacs
Bridesmaid
I could write a novel about this gal. Becca Isaacs is just straight up REAL. A lover of life and all things adventure, Bec brings out the free spirit in everyone. However, on her harder days, she will be the first to admit her need for God’s guidance and grace. What an example! The first time we hung out, it was to buy a Mega Millions lottery ticket (don’t judge, our first and only). That springboarded our friendship into planting gardens, Old Dominion concerts and road trips gone WRONG! If there’s ever someone you want by your side in a car breakdown, it’s Bec! And really for anything! I’ve learned some of life’s greatest lessons from Becca, and I wouldn’t trade our nights of tears and laughter for anything in the world! I love you dearly!
Britanie Ramirez
Bridesmaid
I could not ask for a better sister-in-law than Britanie! But let’s just call it like it is...I don’t have a sister, so you will simply be a sister to me! When Cooper and I were getting to know each other, I could tell immediately how close he and Britanie were based on how he talked about her. I knew I liked her before I met her! I officially got to hang with her and the Ramirez clan in Florida during spring break this year. Of course, I wanted her to like me, which made me nervous, but Brit instantly calmed my fears and talked to me like I was already in the family. We hit it off in line to get food for the boys, doing our makeup on the couch and standing up to horrible LYFT drivers. I am so excited to get to know her better through the years and hopefully get a few pictures together!
Kristin Anderson
Bridesmaid
OH MY GOSH, I’m dyinggggg.....Kristin is the easiest person in the world to quote because she says the cutest things in the world! She & I haven’t been friends for long, only because we couldn’t figure each other out the first few months of knowing each other. She seemed kind and quiet. I came across loud and full of it. Little did we know, we would be walking through life together in 2021! Kristin was at my house the very first night Cooper and I talked on FaceTime. It didn’t end well for me...you know the story. I will never forget Kristin reaching her hand across the table to reassure me that God was in control and I hadn’t heard the last from Cooper. And boy was she right! I can always count on KA to pick up the phone when I call and point me to Jesus for all of life’s questions!
Katey Roshetko Farnsworth
Bridesmaid
Katey Roshetko Farnsworth. I will refer to her this way until I die! I could not imagine the greatest day of my life (next to following Jesus) without Katey standing with me! Let’s face it, she's stood with me through everything else. Katey and I met at Liberty in 2013 in my very first journalism class. She was the peppiest person I had ever met and instantly made me feel valued. I had no idea what I was doing in the broadcasting world, so she and her boyfriend at the time Sam (now husband) took me under their wing. We worked Liberty sports together and would wind down with some cookouts. Katey became more than a colleague to me. She became a dear friend. We had Bible study together and even ended up at the same news station! Our paths have always intersected and our victories celebrated!
Jesse Caldwell
Bridesmaid
Like Cooper and myself, most of my friendship with Jesse Caldwell (formerly Spradlin) has been long distance! Hence the reason for such an old photo! She & her fiancé were LD for a year, so naturally, when Cooper and I began dating, who could I call for advice other than the expert herself? There isn’t a week that Jesse doesn’t check in on mine & Cooper’s relationship. And no one blows up our social media with more compliments and heart faces! Jesse & I were classmates at Liberty. Her laugh always permeated the room over everyone else. She is my songbird! Every time we’d catch up about life, it was like no time had passed. And then, she’d write a song about my sorrows. I have never been more encouraged by anyone! Through every season, she is steady, even in her own heartache.
Lindsay Cayne
Bridesmaid
Where do I start with this one?! Lindsay Nicole Cayne, what a delight you are! Your zest for life is contagious, and there’s not a soul who encounters you and leaves feeling sad. Thank you for always lifting me up and being the best dang hype woman on the planet! Our very first hang was in the summer of 2018 at Sidewinders! We both had tickets to see Lindsay Ell (yeah, she’s not that famous). During our talk with one of the radio guys, he gave us free bus passes to meet her because we were so nice! You don’t find many people out there like that these days. I knew we would be friends for the long haul. Since then, we battled news together, went to more concerts and cried on the couch more times than I can remember. I am so honored this is your first "friend wedding” as a bridesmaid!
Chance Moore
Best Man
In 1990 I was born, and ever since then, my Older Brother has been there to protect me and stand by my side. Chance is a father of two (a son and a daughter) and married to Maggie. In 2019 I was able to live with him and his family for a long time where during the pandemic we may have become the two best Call of Duty players in the nation. I have learned a lot from him growing up. One fun fact is the first-ever college basketball game I officiated we got to officiate together.
Luke Braland
Groomsman
Other than my immediate family, Luke is the only person I have known since before I knew anyone. He was born 11 months after me and from then on we have been friends. From playing against each other in baseball and throwing at each other when we pitched to growing up, visiting each other across the country, and our hour-long phone calls multiple times a month we have just continued to grow as friends and brothers. He is a father of 2 beautiful children and married to his best friend Alana.
Bryan Anneler
Groomsman
Bryan and I met in 2016. We became really close friends while attending and serving at church together. We have a lot of fun talking and just going to dinner. Something a lot of people have probably heard me talk about is Bryan and his wife Andi have been some of my biggest supporters. They even paid for my gas and my groceries when I was interning at a missions organization. Bryan has always stood by my side and I couldn't imagine him not being with us on this incredible day!
Adrian Ramirez
Groomsman
Adrian is my brother-in-law. I have known Adrian since I was 14 years old. Over the years I have looked to Adrian as an example of what a godly man looks like. He has helped me become the man I am today. I really can't imagine what I would look like without Adrian showing me how to live life the right way. I could not imagine him being anywhere else on my wedding day except standing with me. I look forward to continuing to learn how to be a godly husband and eventually a father by watching his example. He is a father of 5 children and married to one of my best friends my sister!
Luke Zandstra
Groomsman
Luke and I met in August of 2018. Sergio, Mitch, and I all roomed with Luke. Luke is an incredible friend and man. We bond quickly over our love for sports and Jesus. Luke is someone who is passionate and driven as well which makes it a lot of fun to be his friend as he gets stuff done. We are both loud and goofy, so that makes for a great time or a headache depending on your perspective. Really glad to have him be a part of our wedding!
Markus Smith
Groomsman
Markus and I met in 2016 serving at church together. We have a lot of shared interests chief among them is loving Jesus and people well. He is married to his wife Caitlyn with a beautiful one-year-old daughter. Markus has been a great friend throughout the years of knowing him, and as our friendship continues to grow I can't imagine life without him and his family in it. He is a gifted musician and singer. He has been by my side through the years in all the ups and downs life has brought to me.
Mitchell Peters
Groomsman
Sorry Victoria, but Mitchell is my first covenant friendship. Mitch and I barely knew each other when one of our leaders thought it would be a good idea to become covenant friends and through prayer we agreed. Ever since then Mitchell and I have been close. We have traveled to Peru for missions together, went to his first-ever NFL game in Arrowhead. We have cheered on each other's colleges and NFL teams. We have laughed together and we have cried together. There has been a lot we have gone through in the 3 years we have known each other, but one thing is certain time will always show us being each others' biggest fans!
Sergio Fielder
Groomsman
In 2017 I moved across the country and was told by the organization I was interning for I was moving in with a 19-year-old from Michigan. Did not know anything about him, but over the next few days I found out my roommate Sergio was going to be one of the closest friends I had in life. The first day we were watching TV together and one of our other roommate's mother's walked in made eye contact with Sergio he said "Hi!" and she looked away saw me and said "Oh hi Cooper!" When she left he goes she did not notice me. We both died laughing and still do over that whenever we talk about it. We have continued to stay in contact over the last four years and I can't wait to see how God uses us in the world around us!
